Wat Does A Period Look Like

Lost, "Across the Sea" (6.15) Futurama


"Cada pregunta que conteste llevará a otra pregunta".

Y es lo que hay. Lo que siempre ha sido. Y a pesar de que lo sabemos, seguimos quejándonos. Seguimos hablando de los guionistas de Perdidos como si fueran funcionarios serving the audience, as if they were absolutes are demiurges narrative. Are two chapters, and there are still many people who think Lost book is like a "Choose your adventure." At this point, it should be clear that the creative control of the series is in their writers, not us, and that, even though the audience has been very important for the development of the series (and its logical stretch to over the years), in the end, they always have the upper hand they are. If you do not like the answers that you provide, does not necessarily mean they have not been able to give, or not have it all planned from the beginning (God, I will not re-enter in this ridiculous debate, nor want to discuss the dubious decision to put that flashback at the end of the episode) is that these are these the answers there, which they want to give us. The problem is yours, not yours. Us take him (very clever and subtly) many chapters: "put a light here because it is good and right articulated in the words of Hurley; kill this person because they no longer serve us, and I will say by Ben and now we offer you the story that I will reveal the origin of Jacob and the Black Smoke and be advised that you will trigger a new set of questions. " Lost metalinguistic is more than ever. But no the writers are expressed as the absolute narrative power Lost, we are still demanding what we want and filling out complaint forms when something keeps us happy. And it's completely legitimate complaint, but before we should think a little.

This week I will not do a thorough analysis of the chapter-well, do I ever? I could write here all the new questions raised by the story of Jacob and his brother, but I feel stupid, there will be an episode like this, give us the answers. I prefer to leave "Across the Sea" as it is in my mind, and savor this parable of good and evil as a lamb tamed by Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof. And for that, I prefer the idea of \u200b\u200bfaith over science applied to science fiction. Because ultimately, the Mother Courage of the island kills puts science and faith "in charge", and with this, Cuse and Lindelof are telling us clearly that for mathematical and logical scientific answers we go to Numb3rs. I am willing to deposit Lost all faith that I lack in the real world and in fact, been doing it a long time. It is necessary, as Jack, we all become men of faith.
